About Me

I’m a writer, an artist, and a burgeoning filmmaker. I’m a Misfit. I’m here to change the world.

I’m a Misfit, and I’m here to make a dent in the universe. I’m a writer, an artist, a storyteller, and a budding filmmaker. I’m a humanitarian. I don’t believe in the status quo, or in good enough.

I’m a kick-ass problem solver and connector – I don’t just dream big, I make things happen. This is my passion, my calling, and my career. I’m lucky. I’d love to talk to you about writing, art, telling your story, changing the world, parenting, the rights of patients, the (somewhat smug) satisfaction of being a strict grammarian, how much I dislike the word guru, hate the word hate, and love the phrase “Don’t tell me that I can’t. Help me figure out how I can, or (kindly) get the hell out of my way.”

If you need to see the usual list of what I’ve done and who I’ve done it for, you can find my CV and several client testimonials on my LinkedIn profile or on my “What I’ve Done” page. Thanks for stopping by. Now, go be brave. Be a helper, Change the world.

Bragging rights

I’ve moderated panels twice at SXSW in 2011 and 2012, ‘Health: Is There Really an App for That?’, and ‘Designing Positive Daily Addictions.’ I was named one of the Top Healthcare Influencers at SXSW 2012 by SocMetrics. I’m currently surviving motherhood as a single parent.
